Act 2: Scene 4

My Infertility Journey


Well, we’re almost finished with the first round of testing.

My husband got to go first.

Then, I went in for my physical, blood work, and cultures last week. Today, I had another ultrasound and even more blood work, which will be followed by a sonohysterogram on Friday.

Our insurance does not cover that and it will cost us $916 out-of-pocket.

So, just to recap, we started TTC in August 2013. Including the tests that are upcoming, I will have had 4 ultrasounds, 2 hormone panels, 2 physicals with fasting blood work, and seen 4 different gynecologists within a 6 month period.

Hoping for results and a plan by the end of next week.

I’m already sick of it and we’ve barely scratched the surface.
